I'm a bit confused though. I hadn't noticed any parts of aeroplan's web site that wasn't working due to my uninstalling flash. The award flight search is all ajaxy stuff.
Flight Passes require Flash.

11 months ago it was *impossible* to find out the rules for how they work, unless you had flash installed. The situation has been partially repaired recently -- if you enter that subsystem you can find some information, but many of the drop-down selectors and such are broken and do not adjust pricing information (for instance, for the Canada Passes). But you cannot purchase, or having purchased them then use them, without Flash.

I travel enough to consider such a thing, but guess why I've never bought a flight pass?

If eUpgrades go to flash it is going to affect many types of travellers -- especially those trying to live their lives on smart phones...
